Making a Drone by Python using RaspberryPi and Google VoiceKitLina Katayose
?
I will introduce the technique that I used to make a drone using RaspberryPi and Google VoiceKit by Python. The VoiceKit looks like making a smart speaker in combination with a RaspberryPy, but it can move up to 4 motors and servos with a simple Python code, too. And I’ll do a flying demonstration.
Lina Katayose is preparing to attend PyCon 2018 in Cleveland from May 10-15. She outlines her schedule which includes joining the PyLadies Lunch event. Her preparations include practicing her English skills, registering for the conference website and ESTA travel authorization, booking flights and a nearby hotel, and checking emails from PyCon. She is excited to attend PyCon as she missed the previous conference in Portland, and plans to document her experience on social media.
